DJ 3000 ‘Don’t Stop EP’

Artist: DJ 3000
Title: Don’t Stop EP
Label: Motech Records
Cat. #: MT137
Format: Digital Download / Streaming
Release Date: 25 September 2020
Tracklist:
1. Don’t Stop
2. Reckless
3. Undertow

In what has been a year of global disruption on a catastrophic scale, 2020 will be rightly remembered for many negatives. This year will also be marked as a phase in time when many of us extensively self-reflected and evaluated our lives, morals, priorities and our goals. For some techno artists, and many cultural Industry players, the gift of time to dedicate to the art of creativity isn’t a reality when there are bills to pay. Therefore lockdown represented an opportunity for many creatives that hold down regular 9-5’s to reset and rediscover creative flow without the normal everyday external distractions. This is the case for Motech Records founder and Detroit techno veteran, DJ 3000 who presents this smart collection of tracks on the new ‘Don’t Stop EP’, on Motech Records.

This, DJ 3000s first autonomous release since ‘Outnumbered EP’ which dropped in the Autumn of 2019, features three exclusive ‘quintessentially Detroit bangers and arguably some of his strongest creative output in recent years. DJ 3000 adds: “the lockdown granted us all time we wouldn’t usually have, so it was good to be productive and put my new studio through it’s paces. After making a bunch of tracks, these three I feel resonate the most right now.”

The opener and title track ‘Don’t Stop’ is minimal Detroit techno at its purest and finest. DJ 3000 hits the proverbial nail on the head with this techno delight, slamming kicks, interlaced with smooth vocal chops and e-piano / organ stabs building a subtle, groove-filled melodic contrast to the intense thumping kicks; a track that will slot into any techno DJ’s set-list. ‘Reckless’, utilises the synth chord sound synonymous with DJ 3000 in this high-energy second track. Its production is sharp and the kicks punch with venom and purpose. Last but not least is ‘Undertow’. DJ 3000 flexes his underrated and under the radar versatility in creativity. It’s all about the raw, popping analogue excitement generated by the Roland 909, set against a baseline that compliments, as well as providing plenty of groove.

With new music like this, 2020 may not turn out to be as disappointing as it’s promised, after all.

This quality also applies to his new EP for Trapez in which he shows his skill to create a powerful groove that sets free so much energy you cannot resist moving you feet to the beat… from the beginning to the last drop.

“Order Of Chaos“ by Mladen Tomic

The EP opens up with “Order Of Chaos” a track with a bucket full of funk and energy. One could say: more of a flow is hardly possible! Machine funk at its finest, relentless but also uplifting.

“Ghost Town“ by Mladen Tomic

“Ghost Town” has the ‘brooding dark’ implanted in its DNA. No tears from the creatures of the night, when the kick drops in after the break you will forget to cry.

“Beton” by Mladen Tomic

“Beton” is as massive as a concrete staircase and the last track of the EP “Turn Left” could be the favorite track for those who like it edgy, futuristic and heavy. There is a lot of skill here how things are put in place, how things work rhythmically and the nature of the sounds is inspirational to say the least. This track is more than massive and it can wake up the „dead“. Just great!

Title: Overflow EP
Label: Rawsome Deep Recordings
Cat. #: RAWDEEP012
Release Date: 08.07.2020
Tracklist:
1. DJOKO – Overflow (Original Mix) – 5:16
2. DJOKO – Earth (Original Mix) – 6:57

Johannes “DJOKO” Kolter is one of the fastest rising talents from the ever innovative German music scene. He has been steadily on the rise with his fresh take on house music through labels such as PIV, Berg Audio and many others. Archie Hamilton has had a remarkable rise up through the ranks of the underground house and techno scene to being one of the most respected artists in his genre.

DJOKO is currently one of the bestselling artists in his genre and is laying the groundwork for its future with his forward-thinking music. He started out 2020 with gigs planned throughout the UK, Europe and South America following his latest EP on PIV that made it to no. 1 on Beatport.

DJOKO’s sound is influenced by funk and soul, garage and deep house and everything in between that is both underground and raw. His DJ-sets vary from breakbeat to house & electro maintaining the typical raw 90’s textures that keep the body moving.

Working across many of the facets of electronic music, Archie Hamilton’spenchant for rugged basslines and ethereal atmospherics form his signature sound. A dynamic selector, an accomplished producer and an influential label owner who has spent 10 years managing A&R for his two imprints Moscow Records and Moss Co. on top of Arkityp imprint alongside fellow selector and contemporary Rossko. Archie’s productions have garnered him consistent spins this on BBC Radio 1 with his standout club hit ‘Waisted’ being a go-to for Annie Mac, Pete Tong and Danny Howard.

DJOKO’s latest EP entitled, ‘Overflow’ starts off with a nice and groovy bassline with a slow and gradual build-up of deep and melodic sounds we have all grown to love. The synth starts to kick in next before the bassline tapers off and the mesmerizing beat takes hold, forcing you to get up out of your seat and dance. Archie Hamilton takes over remixing duties – in this 2 track EP – with a more atmospheric and sultry undertone. The bassline gradually picks up a bit later in the track before Archie decides to speed things up a bit more causing ‘Overflow’ to sound a little bit more funky as might be expected coming from Archie Hamilton.

‘Overflow’ follows up on DJOKO’s track ‘Since Ever’ recently released on Throne Room along with Oliver Cartoni. Archie Hamilton most recently did an extended remix of Danny Howard’s ‘Pumpin’ released on Danny’s label, Nothing Else Matters as well as an original track, ‘Xica’ which came out on David Duriez’s imprint, Brique Rogue nearing the end of June.

‘Overflow’ will be out on Rawsome Deep Recordings Worldwide on August 7th and has already received praise from the likes of Sidney Charles, Fisher, wAFF, and Danny Howard.
